Hi #PortfolioDay!
I'm Aromie. I specialize in creature and character-based concept art. I experiment, but my favorite genres are fantasy and horror. If I can help bring your ideas to life, feel free to contact me!

Illustration of the Nue, a Japanese mythical chimera creature. A quadrupedal creature with the body of a tiger, head of a monkey and tail of a snake.

Reimagined concepts of the Wizard of Oz characters. Five characters are shown. In the middle is a young girl wearing a white button-up and a blue suspender skirt, holding a gun in one hand and a basket of ammo in the other. Next to her is a Cane Corso dog with a collar that says "Toto." To the left is a tall, knife-wielding man dressed in a ragged, bullet-worn suit and fedora, a crow with a knife in its beak sitting on his shoulder. To the right is a man dressed smartly in a vest and mask, with prosthetic arms and one prosthetic leg, an axe on his belt and a can of gasoline beside him. In the back is a huge male brute in a vest with a bearded face and top-knot, wearing knuckle rings on his fists.

A bluish-gray dragonoid creature made of ash. Embers burn within its body and its open mouth. It sits upon a pile of reptilian remains, ash and bones

An anthropomorphic otter, squirrel and mouse dressed in medieval-style clothing sit among rocks. Each one checks a weapon - a javelin for the otter, a sling and stones for the squirrel, and a dagger for the mouse. Next to each one is a bowl of food: shrimps for the otter, nuts for the squirrel, and berries for the mouse.

A digital painting of a Victorian couple dancing in a dark parlour. The woman is wearing mourning clothes and is smiling with her eyes closed. The man is a ghost, his eyes are open and he is looking fondly at his still-living wife.

A black and white painting of a monstrous woman with an enlarged and tumourous right arm standing on a pile of dead Cadian soldiers in a sea of blood, pus, and all manner of horrible fluids. Larger piles of corpses can be seen in the background.

A blonde white woman under the influence of Spice. Two sisters of the Bene Gesserit look on from the background.

A portrait of a black man from the 1920s. His clothes are dirty and crumpled, he wears an expression of anxiety and sadness.

Hey there, #PortfolioDay!

I'm Ashley, an artist who works on book covers, TTRPG's, and tarot cards. I thought today I'd show y'all two of my fav pieces that I just saw are in the wild~ 💚

Done for the @oldgodspod.bsky.social TTRPG with @montecookgames.com

#DigitalArt | #MyArt | #DarkArt

A tall young man leans forward on a countertop of a market stall, face close to the seated young woman who runs it. They are deep in conversation. We see a banner for her store, "Ruth's Apothecary", and note that she is surrounded by various witchy supplies including ceremonial knives and hallucinogenic dreamer's tea.

A young woman with overalls stands yelling in the middle of a river, her arms outstretched to try and distract to shadowy monsters that have chased her and her friends to this point. Behind her, a man carries a woman in a yellow dress, who look is looking over his shoulder, terrified at what she sees. He is carrying her toward a house on top of a hill with lit windows, a beacon of hope.

Living Dead Division @lddarts.bsky.social · 21h

#portfolioday

Hello everyone!!! I'm LDD from Delaware. I work mostly on my OC, from a story I'm developing. 🖖🏽😁

#art #oc #ocart #LivingDeadDivision #procreateartist

Lain, Adelaine Moon, Heléna the King and Phoe-Bee

Lain - Preferred VA: Seth Rogen

Lain is an immortal human who was born in the mid 1980s. He lived a full life, and died in a hospital with his soul mate Heléna. It just so happens, a cooky scientist was doing some science-shit at the same time. A hole got torn in the space-time continuum and Phoe-Bee's (God) energy pushed their souls back into their bodies. They were revived and now their bodies constantly regenerate to peak cellular condition. Also, the energy sent to Lain, "cloned" him, and created Adelaine Moon.

Adelaine Moon - Preferred VA: Megan Thee Stallion

An immortal accidental celestial clone of my main OC Lain. As Lain and Adelaine were once one being, they were born in the 1980s. They lived a full life, and died in a hospital with their soul mate Heléna. It just so happens, a cooky scientist was doing some science-shit at the same time. A hole got torn in the space-time continuum and Phoe-Bee's (God's) energy pushed their souls back into their bodies. They were revived and now their bodies constantly regenerate to peak cellular condition. Also, the energy sent to Lain, cloned him, and created Adelaine. Personality-wise.... 🤔 She's like a Megan Thee Stallion song, come to life.

Heléna the King - Preferred VA: Cardi B

Heléna the King. An immortal human with a GIANT heart, and a sass for days! She's fun, she's funny, and always is able to bring up the spirits of everyone around her.

Phoe-Bee - Preferred VA : Chelsea Peretti and Caitlin Glass

Phoe-Bee. She is God. The coalescence of all energy in the universe. She's got ALL the knowledge, but still working on figuring out context. She CANNOT read a room.

Preferred VA : Chelsea Peretti and Caitlin Glass

Phoe-Bee. She is God. The coalescence of all energy in the universe (including "YOU!"). She's got ALL the knowledge, but still working on figuring out context. She CANNOT read a room. She gained full consciousness in the the mid-1980's, but didn't realize it fully until space-time was broken by a random scientist. She likes to hang-out-with/travel the cosmos with the Living Dead Division as a robotic bee, she originally tried an organic bee, but a 3-foot-long bee wasn't received calmly by really any species.

Stormy ⛈️ - Preferred VA : Kat Denning & Awkwafina

Stormy, the Angel of Time. She's as-if Limp Bizkit and Lady Gaga formed a super-group. She's an episode of Metalocalypse. A 70's horror B-movie, but on purpose...... She's fucking GRINDHOUSE!!!! But she's super sweet, and adores children especially baby sky turtles. She's kinda like a My Little Pony..... with a "gun". If ANYONE messes with the space-time continuum, she WILL BE THERE, and clap those cheeks!!!! She WILL NOT kill anyone (everyone is apart of Phoe-Bee). But.... there's a lot of beatings that can be dished-out, without killing someone. 😜

https://characterhub.com/character/stormy-StrvQzVr

Elysia Eryn and Lottie Lily.

Elysia Eryn - Preferred VA: Zendaya

Elysia Eryn (based on my oldest daughter) is the older sister of Lottie Lily (based on my youngest daughter). And she is a mechanical whiz kid. She's a builder, engineer, and tech nerd. Being a descent of Lain/Adelaine, the Living Dead Division watch over their bloodline through the ages.

Preferred VA :....?.... Caitlin Glass....?

Lottie Lily is the younger sister of my OC Elysia Eryn. They both are part of the Bloodline. Descendants of Lain, and Adelaine Moon. She is the science genius girl, the Star Trek nerd. Captain McSassypants. A true wunderkind..... But, she's also Daffy Duck.

Hi #PortfolioDay I'm Pete.

I'm a Senior Environment Artist working on stuff like SE:R at Rebellion. Last year, I also started a YouTube channel with game dev educational videos and some Blender and UE5 tutorials.
www.youtube.com/@PeteDimitrov

Here's some of my art:

Game screenshot from environment in Sniper Elite: Resistance by Rebellion. Depicts muddy banks and bunkers in 3D that I worked on. Everything is grassy and wet and muddy.

Another Sniper Elite: Resistance screenshot. This one shows a dam that has been damaged.

An UE5 screenshot of a scene of a ruined interior. Light spills inside from the daylight outside. There is a rock orb in the middle of the composition and it floats. On its ends there are blue crystals.

A Japanese shrine depicted in 3D with fantasy twists. Showcases early morning scene with lots of wooden structures and orange bamboo candles. Unreal Engine 4 artwork. Artist signature in the corner says the art was made 2018.

Queen Gwenevere @queengwenevere.bsky.social · 13h

Woohoo, #PortfolioDay ! I’m Gwenevere Singley, illustrator and general art wrangler! I’ve worked in games, animation, interactive media, TTRPGs, comics, and I’d love to work on more!

(All oil on canvas except the big fight scene, which was painted in Photoshop)

Portfolio: gwensingley.com

The Rose Queen, in a grand rose gown, is surrounded by her court of elegant bee attendants in a spacious pavilion decked with roses. The bee courtiers are all vying for her attention.

A knight on a white horse, setting out to find a dragon in a mountainous wild wasteland, has just encountered the dragon’s aunt. She is MASSIVE, half pompous matron and half dragon, decked with curls, pearls, and feathers (or are they horsetails?) with a long scaly tail stretching back into the mountains, and a formidable gold lorgnette, through which she examines the knight. She does not approve.

A joyful zebra, that is also a knight, ON FIRE, with stripes and tail turning to flames, garbed in a golden helmet with plumes that also turn to flames, rearing up and holding a striped lance that is also on fire, setting out on an adventure across sunny mountains, along a road leading to a golden castle. A little fire salamander friend tags along.

Cover for the Sword Opera TTRPG: a half a dozen motley renaissance characters are having a huge brawl near a baroque pavilion in a garden. A swordsman in black faces off against a swordswoman in red, behind them a be-turbaned swordsman with a blue flaming scimitar is restrained by a pleading damsel, a ruffian in yellow with a couple of daggers sprawls in the foreground, a sneaky rogue in a weird hat circles behind with a dagger, and another damsel kneels behind the duelists begging both her lovers to desist. Dramatic mountains and storm clouds set the scene.
